Abstract

The design of overhead monorail crane is different from general structural design because of its loading conditions and its effects. There is minor axis bending occurs in case of runway beam because of moving load. To design curved runway beam is very challenging due to additional torsional effects. The previous work has been done to evaluate different effects like lateral torsional buckling, moving load effect and deformations of the steel I beams. Behavior of simple curved beam is also studied by some researchers. In this review paper, the previous work will be discussed briefly related to design of monorail runway beam, curved beam and supporting structure.
